First of all, you have to have the phone as the modem plan, which I believe is couple of steps beyond the power vision.

Here is someone that did it with Verizon Q:

With this and the instruction on how to do DUN on sprint, you should be able to do so.

I am trying to do this with my tomtom one. What are the DUN settings? I need to know the access points, address info, and some other details..

First, you have to have the modem plan. Apparently without it, this may not work.


From:

http://www.qusers.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=11263

in the wireless data setup on the TomTom

1. Phone selection - other
2. Carrier selection - other
3. Access point - vzw3g
4. username - (phone number)@vzw3g.com
5. password - vzw
6. number to dial - #777
7. No scripts

Make the appropriate substitution for Sprint:

For Sprint:
Username: "your vision username@sprintpcs.com"
Password: "your vision password"
(If you don't know those contact sprint tech support and they will help)
Phone number: #777

Also Do you have the latest firmware for Tomtom One?

hmm im wondering what to put in for the access point for sprint. I have internet on my phone ( i have the sero plan), but no tethering plan. I just got my tomtom from crutchfield and it looks like it has the most updated software but im going to check later today. OK well Im going to try this and hopefully will work.

I cant get it to work I tried sprintpcs as the access point. Anyone get theres to work with any tomtom gps?

It.s probably not working because you don't have the modem plan.

One thing to try is download the pdanet. The newest version has bluetooth support. The trial version is good for 7 days.

Click the "COM Ports" tab and add a new Incoming Port (typically - COM0)

You should now be paired and ready to use you TomTom ONE with your PPC 6700.

Notes:

1) Make sure you have a data plan (Vision) from Sprint PCS.

2) You will probably have to go to "TomTom Traffic" after successfully pairing to activate your free TomTom PLUS trial.

3) I purchased my TomTom ONE today and am successfully running TomTom PLUS through my Sprint PCS PPC 6700.

but since this is a smartphone site..particularly one for the Motorola Q...
do you know if this infact works for smartphones?

Still wouldnt work for mine. Oh well im about to give up because does the traffic feature even work here in the US? I thought it said on tomtoms site it does not work in the US. Thats all I want it for is traffic.
